Popis: Objectives The emergence and spread of carbapenemase-producing Enterobacteriaceae is a worldwide concern. This study reports the whole genome sequence of an NDM-5-, CTX-M-14-, OXA-10- and MCR-1-co-producing Escherichia coli sequence type 167 (ST167) multidrug-resistant clinical strain (EC129) isolated from a sputum sample of a hospitalised patient diagnosed with pneumonia. Methods The genome of E. coli EC129 was subjected to next-generation sequencing and reads were assembled. The draft genome was annotated using DDBJ Read Annotation Pipeline DFAST server, followed by subsequent in silico analysis. Results The genome of E. coli ST167 strain EC129 is 5 319 159 bp in length and contains 5022 protein-coding sequences. The blaNDM-5, blaCTX-M-14, blaOXA-10 and mcr-1 genes were detected along with other antimicrobial resistance genes conferring resistance to aminoglycosides, fluoroquinolones, sulfonamides, trimethoprim and tetracyclines. Antimicrobial susceptibility testing revealed that the isolate was resistant to all antimicrobial agents except colistin. Conclusion To our knowledge, this study is the first to report anE. coli ST167 strain co-producing NDM-5, CTX-M-14, OXA-10 and MCR-1 isolated from a sputum sample of an individual with pneumonia in Japan, thus elucidating the molecular characteristics and resistance gene diversity of this strain.
